Hippo Campus, a band hailing from the Twin Cities, consisting of members Jake Luppen, Nathan Stocker, Zach Sutton, Whistler Allen, and DeCarlo Jackson, has been making waves in the music industry since their 2017 debut album, Landmark. Their success continued with hits like “Buttercup” and “Way It Goes,” each boasting over 100 million streams on Spotify. Their latest album, Flood, released in September, delves into themes of growing up and existentialism while maintaining their signature upbeat sound. Recorded at Sonic Ranch over ten days, the band took a more focused approach to songwriting for this album. With a background in classical music and extensive touring experience, the band aims to continue their success by collaborating with their favorite acts and expanding their fanbase. Despite their global travels, the members of Hippo Campus always find solace in returning to the Midwest. The band recently performed at Hinterland, showcasing tracks from Flood and expressing gratitude for the opportunity to perform in the region where it all began.
